Patella Fracture Repair

I am an avid cyclist who was biking over 70 miles a week. I unfortunately broke my knee cap (patella) after a bicycle crash when someone had abruptly stopped in front of me. I immediately saw Dr. Momaya, who diagnosed me with the patella fracture and recommended surgery to reduce the bones back to place with screws.

I underwent surgery with Dr. Momaya. The rehab was carefully planned out. Although it was tough to bend my knee initially, we worked through it and now I am back to fully riding my bike! Without his expertise, advice, and caring attitude, I don’t think I would be back on my bike 4 months later. Thank you Dr. Momaya (and staff) for everything you did to get me mobile again!

Patient consent was obtained.
